Golf Tournament Raises Over $12K

August 12, 2012 - Gary Boyd, Event Director

The Mono County Sheriff Search and Rescue Team (SAR) held its 5th annual Golf Tournament on August 12, 2012 at the Snowcreek Golf Course and a good time was had by all!

It was a successful event, raising over $12,000. The money will be used to support our new building, which is under construction, and much needed equipment.

We had dozens of sponsors, raffle prize providers, and players-so many that we don't have space to identify them all but want to send a thank you to everyone who supported us.

There are a few people and organizations that we need to call out for going above and beyond the call of duty in supporting the tournament:

• Snowcreek for being our major sponsor and providing us with the golf course;
• Brian Venneman, the manager of the Snowcreek Golf Course, and his staff, for providing their expertise and any and all the assistance we needed in hosting a golf tournament;
• Sierra Star and manager Dave Schacht for providing extra golf carts and a foursome;
• Dave Fultz from Maverick Signs for making all of our hole sponsor signs;
• Sheriff Rick Scholl and Chief Dan Watson for supporting us on Sunday;
• The Sierra Wave for telling the Eastern Sierra about the event;
• and our SAR volunteers who worked tirelessly on Sunday, and weeks before, to make it a fun event.

Thank you to the community, visitors, and SAR supporters everywhere for making this the most successful, tournament in our history!
